They were sitting inside the pub and chatting when Daniel noticed a
glinting light in the sky through the window. He looked out of the window to
the North North West in the direction of Dudley. It was now that he noticed a
flattened metallic-coloured object in the distance. It was hard to judge its
shape as it was at least a mile away. It appeared to be about the size of a
car. He then noticed a second identical object a bit higher up and to the right
of the first.

Both the objects appeared to be rotating slowly, as with every rotation
they would catch the sunlight creating a brief flash of light. They were also
wobbling slightly. The objects were slowly ascending but what struck Daniel the most was that they
were going straight up despite the fact there was a breeze blowing. He pointed
the objects out to Julie who was amazed. Both witnesses continued to watch the
objects for about 5 minutes until they were lost from sight at the top of the
window.

Sighting Analysis

This is an intriguing daylight sighting of two unidentified objects. It
is unfortunate that they were too distant to get a clear view of. They
certainly appeared metallic as they were reflecting sunlight. As the objects
were slowly ascending, there is the possibility that they were helium filled
balloons. However it is very interesting that the objects were ascending
vertically but did not drift on the wind. We cannot rule out the possibility
that the breeze was only local and had died down in the area where the objects
were situated. But if this was not the case, then it suggests the objects were
under powered flight rather than drifting balloons. They certainly did not
appear to be conventional aircraft of any kind, so could these have been
genuine advanced craft? This cannot be ruled out entirely. Perhaps there were
other witnesses to these objects in Dudley who may be able to shed more light
on the incident and have yet to come forward.
